Result of EGM

Appointment of Liquidators

and

Resignation of Nominated Adviser and Joint Brokers

Safestyle announces that, further to the announcement on 18 December 2023 notifying shareholders of an extraordinary general meeting ("EGM"), the resolutions to approve the winding up of the Company and to nominate Mark Kelly and Leonard Gerber of KPMG, and David Standish of Interpath Advisory, as joint liquidators (the "Joint Liquidators") were duly passed. Further, at a meeting of creditors immediately following the EGM, the appointment of the Joint Liquidators was confirmed. Any enquiries regarding the Company or its liquidation should be directed to Leonard Gerber at restructuring-ci@kpmg.com . The telephone number is +44 1534 888 891.

The Company announces that Rob Neale, Phil Joyner, Michelle Williams, Alan Lovell, Julia Porter and Fiona Goldsmith, directors of the Company, will resign from the board at a time that is appropriate to ensure they can support the Joint Liquidators in the fulfilment of their duties.

Further, following the appointment of the Joint Liquidators, Zeus has resigned as Nominated Adviser and Joint Broker to the Company with immediate effect. Accordingly, the Company's ordinary shares will remain suspended from trading on AIM, inter alia, pursuant to AIM Rule 1, pending the appointment of a replacement nominated adviser.

If the Company fails to appoint a replacement nominated adviser within one month of today's date, admission of the Company's shares to trading on AIM will be cancelled.

Liberum has also resigned as Joint Broker to the Company with immediate effect.
